As for the 2.5L 4cyl. its got 170hp, but i dont know what tranny is offered.
This is for the 09 Escape, the combination on the V6 gives it 1mpg better fuel economy. I was looking to replace wife's 04 Escape with something and i think i just go tmy answer. I love the new escape, but hated the old engine&tranny. So this might be my answer now :) was also looking at the edge, but i think this is better on gas and since gas is at 1.21$/L the escape looks better. :)
